- Gigabit Ethernet interface provides a direct line of network communication to PCs, Macs and Linux workstations
- Multi-protocol support includes TCP/IP v6, IPsec and SSL for the latest in network and security standards
- Support for widely-used emulations, including PCL 6, PostScript 3, PDF and XPS, means black and white printing goes off without a hitch.
- PageScope utilities simplify setup and management easily from the desktop.
- The Konica Minolta pagepro 5650EN offers an immense duty cycle of 200,000 prints per month to serve the most demanding print environments.
2. Constantly getting memory full error. This can be fixed with a simple driver upgrade... but good luck installing it! Drivers which are 3 years old WILL NOT install on Windows 64-bit platform.
3. If in the off chance you get this useless thing to print something, it will jam. Even with top notch paper it will jam.
4. Tech/customer service. If you have two arms you are hired at Konica Minolta. Go fill out an application. No experience required.
LISTEN TO THE OTHER REVIEWERS. THERE''S A REASON THIS PRINTER IS SO CHEAP.Background: We hooked this baby up for our workgroup network with 4 workstations and 1 server. OS used: Win 7s and Window Server Edition
Long story short, we''ve encountered issues after issues with getting it to print. The hardware is 5 stars, however, the software and support center is beyond failure. Expect to be on hold for 30 mins at minimum when calling their call center.
Then, expect to rely on their web knowledge self-help website to DIY and fix it because their technician genius are useless.
What happened? Because of its software, our network from time to time would not recognize the printer and would not print. On a good day, it would print, but if you print more than 10 pages, MEMORY FULL Message pops.
We finally solved it ourself after the technician wasn''t able to. Found out, the driver that win7 installed isn''t correct. After getting the official driver and update from the web, it still gives the run around.
Overall, this is too, too, much of a hassle and is unacceptable for a company this magnitude to fail to provide.
Again, the hardware is great, but cross your finger because software issue may prevent you from productivity.We bought the Pagepro 5650 45PPM when our Phaser 3600 died. We are a high-volume printer at and can print upwards of 1500 sheets a week. This printer made it impossible to do our job as there is a 2 to 3 minute lag between each job queued. We returned the printer and returned to the Xerox Phaser 3600.This is the 5th printer we have bought,and I am very happy with Konica-Minolta. We tried a HP, and it was a disaster, KM has been the best, both in B/W and their laser Color, of which I also own. It is fast, and once you get the hang of the controls and sequences, it is dead nuts great if you need volumm, and I do. Got a great price at Amazon, well below street/store pricing and the shipping was fast, secure, and it arrived in an unopened new box.
